[Patch Request] Fix systemd log spam on KDE

Extremely minor annoyance, but...

Sometimes when running KDE applications from a terminal you get this sort of log spam:

Code: [Select]
$ kioclient exec ~
kf.kio.gui: Failed to determine systemd version, falling back to extremely legacy forking mode.

(Really, any time a KDE program starts another application, you get this sort of log spam).

Chimera silences these warnings with a patch:

I've seen this message in the past and my main thought was " I hope they don't decide to remove the so called 'falling back to extremely legacy forking mode' ".
Also known as 'Code that works without relying on systemd'

I've add the patch to my collection that are already automatically patched on update with the script patch-hook which I wrote to bring to pacman my most missed feature of Gentoo.
For if you don't want to wait, or it never happens, and you don't want to keep doing it manually.

Edit:something is not  working using this script on a brand new Artix install but works on mine. I'll need to fix it.
Fixed I think.

And people were saying we are stupid, because we don't want "features", certainly this shit does not bring anything to the table, just delegates shit to dbus and systemd adding pointless code complexity (the entire code I saw about this is just appalling garbage), but I guess the brave new world order plans are in place so we can't do anything about this and just bitch and moan. ;/
